The first one was funny but after that the humor was just not there. British people make me cringe, not only their looks, but their humor sucks, and their accents are horrible.
Maybe this is why American people get a reputation of being arrongant and elitist

Funny that you assume I'm american because I give an opinion

Yeah, you're probably a Canuck...


The only thing not funny about that video was the vandalism of a Jaguar...blimey, what a lovely auto...much more svelte than a hippie's rally car from Canada...

When brits curse out of frustration and not anger it is funny. For some reasonI associate the british accent with intellegence, so whenI hear them use the F word instead of the vocabulary I assume they possess it make me laugh.
I get very frustrated with you fing americans! ;-) ... lol

Actually ... I have just watched those clips now and I have to say while I get where they're coming from they are definitely not good examples of British humour ... I'll see if I can find something ... a couple of shows that make me laugh just now are "teenage kicks" with the dad living under the stairs and man stroke woman ... I'll go looksee :-)

I can't believe they actually did that ... I love old cars and classics, modern stuff just leaves me cold ... a friend of my dads used to have an e-type, I loved the old style dash with the proper separate clocks and toggle switches ...oh and the smell inside ... niiiice! :-)

I wonder if my thing is a "grass is greener on the other side", but I enjoy Brit Humor more than I enjoy American humor. What I mean by that is, if I had to chose one over the other, I would chose the Brit stuff. I record this hilarious sketch show called "That Mitchell Webb Look" on the BBC, and it kicks my *** about ten times more that something like SNL. It is hilarious without being crude, maybe that is it. They can be blue, but it is more implied than said. An American comic will just come out and say it, and a Brit will imply or lead you to it. Am I on my ***? Maybe it is just me...anyway, that is how I feel.
